Chapter 27 [Righteousness is thin Yuntian, do not ask for anything in return]
At this time, Guo Xu spoke...
"Coach, I can be a sparring coach for you. I am very famous in the street court in Polis, nicknamed "Condor". I often use this stadium to practice football secretly, so I usually wear sneakers to work."
The scientific name of the vulture is "Bald-headed Sea Eagle", also known as "American Eagle". On June 20, 1782, the US Congress passed a resolution to choose it as the American national bird. Billy Donovan looked at Guo Xu and said that those who can get this nickname should have some strength, of course, it may also be because he is even bald than a vulture.
"Can you play point guard?" Donovan asked.
Guo Xu smiled and said, "Of course, it's not bragging. My skills will definitely be able to fight NCAA. But I was not tall at the time and had poor confrontation, so no school was willing to give me a scholarship. My family was not in good condition, so I had to be forced to take a break from school."
Others have made up for him a bad background of his own illness and poor family.
Donovan asked: "This won't affect your job, will it? How much is the right amount of money I'll pay you?"
"My job is to serve you. The floor is too slippery. Now I can help on the court. The boss will only praise him when he knows it. This is my honor. How can I ask for money?" Guo Xu said, taking off his coat, taking off his hat and putting it on the ground casually, wearing only a short-sleeved T-shirt, and asking in high spirits: "Coach, which team should I join?"
"You wear a black vest, what's your name?" Donovan said gratefully.
"My name is Keith Lee. Thank you coach for giving me this opportunity to compete with experts. I really like basketball, so I went to the stadium to find a job." Guo Xu thanked him while taking over a black vest.
Everyone's eyes looked different when they saw Guo Xu. No one discriminated against his image anymore, and only felt sincere admiration.
In this selfish country and in this era of indifference in emotions, it is really rare to see good people like "Kisley" who are so kind, warm in ancient ways, helping in time, and not seeking rewards!
"Good guy" joined the black team with a chuckle, while all the five starters of Fozda were divided into the white team.
Donovan's training method is that the main players play in the first team, focusing on practicing offensive and defensive routines, rather than breaking up the starting lineup like the Spartans, focusing on practicing the players' personal abilities.
This arrangement is exactly what Guo Xu wants. He is very low-key. He passes the ball to his teammates as the coach arranges the ball to his teammates after halftime, and then waits for the pass outside the three-point line to see his temporary teammates perform. He goes all out on the defensive end, defending alone and chasing defense very actively.
Foster University starting point guard Carlos Terry is 185cm tall and weighs 83 kilograms. He is much worse than Martin Cliffs. Even if he is not familiar with him, Guo Xu has no pressure to defend him and has not been removed at all. However, Guo Xu doesn't care about other positions and is unable to assist in defense.
After playing for several rounds, Casey Shaw scored 6 points, twice back-run and layups, and once received a mid-range shot.
Donovan was very dissatisfied with the backup guard's defense and shouted: "It's more proactive to chase and defend. It's too easy for you to make Casey score. Let's cheer up."
Guo Xu asked loudly on the court: "Coach, can I let Casey defend? I am good at chasing and defending."
Donovan was stunned for a moment, thinking that the substitute would have to save his physical strength properly tomorrow. The defensive enthusiasm of the sparring training would be better. He would be a fool if he didn't agree. "Yes, you should be careful."
After Guo Xu changed defense, he opened fire on the defensive end and used a "mad dog"-style defense, constantly fighting in close combat, entangled Casey Shaw.
Casey failed to run out of the space for three consecutive rounds. Whether he ran around or backwards, Guo Xu made a very accurate judgment and could always catch up with the interference. Compared with speed and flexibility, Guo Xu was obviously stronger.
Casey Shaw began to feel depressed. How could his starting point guard at a prestigious university be blocked by a cleaner? He asked for the ball on his back and was ready to play with his technical and physical advantages.
Miller hung the ball to 45 degrees on the right. Casey Shaw held the ball and pushed Guo Xu twice with his back, and was surprised to find that he could not push the opponent at all.
Guo Xu's strength is not proportional to his weight. After a year of training, especially boxing training, his strength has increased a lot. With the use of footsteps and small movements, it is strange that Casey Shaw can push it.
Guo Xu has strong toes, strong lower limbs, stable center of gravity when practicing boxing, and can fight back and forth with the club coaches, and is outstanding in the same level of weight. His upper limbs are equally strong, with the NBA standard 185 pounds (84 kg) bench press up to 10 pushes.
His current strength is no less than the future "Little Assassin" Isaiah Thomas, and he has a body that can play against the NBA. Guo Xu's previous life, Thomas Jr. had 13 bench presses on the rookie's 84 kilograms in his annual body side. Nate Robinson, who had a very thick arm, also had 13 bench presses on the rookie's body side.
Casey Shaw failed to push it twice, and forced himself to turn around in the middle to jump shot. Before the ball was raised, Guo Xu accurately slapped the ball on the basketball. His defensive experience played a role. As long as the opponent couldn't squeeze, the choice was nothing more than turning around and shooting in two directions or passing the ball to his teammates. He was very determined to take action.
Guo Xu started the basketball and took the opportunity to attack quickly, and passed Bonner with a change of speed and quickly entered the basketball in the middle.
On the sidelines, Donovan and assistant coach Forlester Abel looked at each other and saw surprise from the opponent's eyes. Even the ball blind can see that Guo Xu has the upper hand in the match against Casey Shaw. Although he is short, his defense is very tough and he is not afraid of confrontation.
After playing for a few more minutes, Guo Xu was low-key on the offensive end and tried his best to defend. Casey Shaw was so entangled that he was too big. He made two forced moves and missed the rhythm, and the rhythm was messed up.
Guo Xu seized the rare opportunity to use mobile phones, and made a three-pointer in the counterattack, making two shots.
Abel said in surprise: "Is this guy the street ball king of Polis? He has good dribbling skills, plus this defense... he will definitely start when he goes to our school."
Donovan sighed: "I don't know how old he is this year. He seems to be very young. If he is not over 20 years old, recruiting him to the school will definitely help the team. It is a waste to be a volunteer for such talents."
On the court, Guo Xu was not satisfied with his performance. He found that his passing awareness was not good enough and he was not familiar with his temporary teammates, so he could not give out exquisite assists. In the team's training game, he had an illusion that he thought he was like Nash of 180CM and now he was degenerated into an ordinary defender, which was a little unhappy.
In fact, his progress has been transformed. As long as he is given the ball and someone to cover it, the defender of Fozda will definitely not be able to defend it. Without anyone to cooperate, he also scored nearly 20 points, and it is an opportunity to catch the ball and fight alone.
After the training, coach Donovan once again thanked Guo Xu and asked him about his age.
Guo Xu lied that he was 23 years old. Because of Asian descent, he looked young, and Donovan kept calling him a pity. Casey Xiao, who was guarded by Guo Xu, felt a little relieved when he heard that Guo Xu was older than him and was still a local "street fighter".
Donovan suggested: "Kiss, playing streetball is not without prospects. I suggest you try it in New York, where there are many people like you who can make money."
"I will definitely go if I have time. I hope I will play with you again if I have the chance in the future." Guo Xu and Donovan shook hands hard.
